It incorporated "Lost in Space" FX w/ "Avengers" style while constructing an intelligent riveting plot. The only item that was telegraphed, was: viewing scenery as computer code.But, maybe I would've enjoyed "Mummy" more if the new THX theatre was actually THX & a certain urban couple would've stopped playfully yelling (a must concerning the rock concert VOLUME of the center channel ... as if any other speaker was working) at eachother throughout the entire movie.
IMHO, Brendon Fraser was much more believeable as "Goerge of the Jungle" or that other movie "Blast From the Past". In today's stars, I'd allocate Keanu to action & leave the interpersonal stuff to Brendon. Kenau Reeves stunk up the screen in "Much ado about Nothing" as much as Jason Robards in "Julius Ceasar" & I'm not about to give him another drama. Although, he was almost passable in "Walk in the Clouds", but Brendon Fraser does that sort of role much more believeable. I say that to place my opinion in context, not to belittle Brendon just to indicate his limitations. Semi-permeable membranes have more depth tha Brendon's prowess as a reluctant albeit competant swashbuckling adventurer.
